Blue Jays' Matt Dominguez: Recalled from Triple-A
Matt Dominguez was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo and will start at third base and hit eighth in the lineup Sunday against the Red Sox, Barry Davis of Sportsnet reports.Everyday third baseman Josh Donaldson will be limited to DH duties Sunday, so the Toronto Blue Jays brought Dominguez aboard to provide some more depth at the hot corner. It could still be a few more days before Donaldson is cleared to resume fielding, so Dominguez may be in position to make multiple starts during his time with the Jays. The 26-year-old was slashing .287/.333/.419 with five homers across 167 at-bats at Triple-A.

Blue Jays' Matt Dominguez: Optioned to Triple-A Buffalo
The Toronto Blue Jays optioned Matt Dominguez to Triple-A Buffalo following Tuesday's game, Brendan Kennedy of the Toronto Star reports.Dominguez's removal from the roster leaves the Blue Jays with just three bench players, but he received just one at-bat over the last five games, so the team decided it would be better off adding another reliever in his place. Dominguez could be an option for the big club later this season, but he would likely need a Josh Donaldson injury to have a shot at any sort of regular role.

Blue Jays' Matt Dominguez: Gets chance to fill void at first base
Matt Dominguez, who has been a third baseman his whole career, got his first start at first base on Wednesday against the White Sox, the Toronto Sun reports.Now that Chris Colabello is out of the Toronto Blue Jays' picture for at least 80 games, and possibly much longer than that, the landscape around first base has changed quite dramatically. Justin Smoak and Edwin Encarnacion were the obvious candidate to fill the void, but Smoak has struggled early in the season, and Edcarnacion is much better offensively when he is the DH. In his first two games with the team, the 26-year-old Dominguez is 0-for-6 with a walk and two strikeouts.
